I went ahead and did the 2 gaskets and it barely cleared. IF it blows out (it might) I will likely get a mini-starter due to the mods my engine has I wasn't thinking about.

RA exhaust manifold to starter clearance.

My driver's side manifold is right touching the solenoid heat shield.
Has anyone ever put TWO of the Remflex gaskets on that side to move it the thickness of the gasket ?

Yes, but the one on top didn't touch, but it seems if I move it to where the one was on the original upper control arm, it looks like it will hit then.

I know it's an old post but I'm curious.

Cam timking

Does anyone know how much the cam would move if I put a Chevy offset crank key on the Pontiac cam? If it's a 2 degree crank key, how much would that move the cam ?
